Bronze Bell held at Gangneunggwaneumsa Temple
KOGL Type 1Korea Heritage Service · khs.go.kr

This is a late-Joseon beomjong, a Buddhist temple bell, that reflects foreign influences. The inscription on its body clearly records its casting date (1794, the 18th year of King Jeongjo) and the master founder, Gwon Dong-sam, making it a valuable bell for research into the stylistic changes of late-Joseon bells and the lineage of their founders, and it merits designation and preservation on that basis.
